“Juan did an amazing job with communication and care for my dog Cassius. He is always updating us with pictures and letting us know how Cassius is doing. He also responds very fast and was able to watch Cassius on short notice. I strongly suggest anyone that wants to make sure their pup is being taken care of in good hands to book with Juan.”


“Karine is the best sitter I have used! She was very patient and took really good care of my nervous Aussie shepherd. Asked question to make sure she was always well taken care of and safe. I loved all the updates and pics of ruby playing and getting along with the family. I trust her and highly recommend her to take good care of your fur babies. Thank you Karine!!”

It gave us so much peace of mind. They came back happy, healthy and clearly loved. We’d gladly leave them with her again!”


“I can’t recommend enough Kellwin for doing an amazing job, taking care of Khloe. From the very beginning communication was clear and prompt. He created a space for dog parents new to Rover to ask questions and share information. Throughout the entire stay we received regular updates and the cutest pictures of Khloe that helped ease our minds. It was clear that Khloe was happy and in great hands. Should there ever be another need for dog sitting, we will be looking to rebook with Kellwin. Thank you again for taking such great care of Khloe.”

She provided great updates, and it was clear our pup was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Lindsey is truly passionate about caring for dogs, and it shows in every detail. We will absolutely be rebooking!”
